• Netizens say they can't choose between Haerin or Hanni when asked who the "main dancer" of NewJeans is

    NewJeans seems to be doing what a lot of K-Pop groups do these days, which is to not give their members any real official jobs.

    Fans have guessed what each member's "unofficial" position is based on what they bring to the songs, but they're all so talented that it makes sense that they don't have official roles like main singer, main dancer, etc.

    This also means that there is no "main dancer" in the group. And recently, a post on an online forum got people talking about who exactly is NewJeans' "main dancer."

    The title of the post, "Netizens debate who is New Jeans' main dancer?," brought up the fact that each member of the group can dance very well and that fans might like each of them based on how they look.

    The netizen also wrote, "Is Haerin NewJeans' main dancer? Haerin seems to be the best dancer, so if she's not the main dancer, who is?".

    People who commented on the post agreed with the writer, which shows how different people's tastes are when it comes to looks. But then they also pointed out that NewJeans don't have “unofficial” position.

    Netizens comments included:

    "I know they don't have an official position!! I just want to know more about their main underground dancer."

    "They don't have an official position."

    "NewJeans has no position."

    "I was thinking it was Hanni."

    "I've heard that Haerin can dance the best."

    "I also think Haerin is the best dancer."

    "Hanni seems to be the best dancer among the group."

    "Haerin and Hanni dance so well"

    "I thought Hanni was the best dancer."

    "They have a main dancer!! Hanni"

    "When they first came out, there was an article about Hanni being the main dancer, but they said they don't have any position."

    "Isn't it Hanni?"

    "All of the members are good, but Hanni dances the best, in my opinion."

    "Hanni can dance well in any style"

    "I think it's Hanni, too."

  • IVE's Ahn Yujin Explains How She Faced Hate on 'Produce48' and How It Changed Her Forever

    Ahn Yujin of IVE shared some heartfelt memories from her Produce48 days, revealing the shocking reality of the harsh comments she faced.

    On January 15th, Ahn Yujin and Jang Wonyoung appeared as guests on tvN’s You Quiz on the Block, where they caught up and shared some personal stories.

    Ahn Yujin opened up about her time on the survival show, saying, "What I still remember is that Produce48 was my first real trial. I thought I was really loved and that people liked me, but when I went on that program, I was shocked to realize that there are people in this world who dislike me".

    She continued, "In our daily lives, there aren't many people who directly tell us, 'I hate you.' It took time for me to accept that some people don’t like me, even though I didn’t do anything wrong."

    Ahn Yujin also explained the pressure she felt during the competition, revealing, "Every week, the rankings were decided, and we had to line up in order. I started to feel trapped in that (internet) world."

    She added, "Sometimes I wouldn’t get support, and there would be people who hated me. It was a situation where my evaluation could be viewed 24/7. Thinking, 'How do others see me?' created fear."

    Jang Wonyoung added, "For me, it can be summed up in one sentence: I did it because I was young and didn’t know better."

    When talking about her recent world tour, Ahn Yujin shared, "I tend to get nervous, especially when it's a stage I really want to do well on. I get even more nervous."

    But she also shared how she calms herself, saying, "What I always think is that all these people like me. Then it's so easy. With that mindset, I think 'Everyone here? They're all mine!' and it makes me excited and happy", she laughed.

    Finally, Ahn Yujin expressed her goals for 2025, saying, "I hope to stay healthy. I want to work hard on my schedule and take good care of myself, and I hope everyone has a healthy 2025. That's my wish."

    Ahn Yujin’s honest reflections remind fans of the tough journey idols face behind the scenes.
